While the director and a release date have not been confirmed, reports said that the filming of the upcoming movie will begin next year.
In an Instagram post, Marlon Wayans confirmed the revival of the franchise by sharing a photo of himself with the familiar Ghostface-style villain, the original film’s antagonist.
